Need a reason to invest in HomeKit? Get a petIf you need an excuse to get into HomeKit, lay it off on a pet (sorry, fish don't count), then try these ideas on for size.
I never owned a camera until I became a parent. Once we welcomed our first bundle of joy into the house, I suddenly had more cameras than I knew what to do with.
Fast forward about 15 years and I'm facing a similar scenario, but this time, it's with HomeKit devices and pets. A new puppy came into our lives about a month ago, and now our semi-smart home is borderline genius as I've rationalized the purchase of more than one new HomeKit product as critical to keeping life with the hound under control.
I'm not saying all of these scenarios will happen on the same day...but they could. You gotta make sure you're ready for anything.
The walk
The dog starts to whimper. Shut off the house alarm hands-free as you hustle the dog out the door before he has an accident in the house. We use the Honeywell Lyric as part of our professionally-monitored home alarm system...
